Simon Rodger

SIMON RODGER's testimonial against Tottenham Hotspur will be played as a serious pre-season friendly.

The game to be played on July 31, will feature no guest players, however there will be a roll of honour at half-time for some of the old Palace favourites.

Fans hopes of seeing old favourites like Ian Wright, Mark Bright and Attilio Lombardo playing have been dashed, but there will be plenty of action for people to turn up to watch.

SIMON is on Tom Watts' football show this Saturday on BBC London Live 94.9FM - show starts at 2pm.

Tickets for the game can be purchased from the Palace Box Office. Adults £13 (£15 on day), U16/OAP £5/£1 (£5 on day).
